Darius Garland of the Cleveland Cavaliers have made a huge step in his injury recovery after the team's latest decision.

For the past three outings, the franchise has been without its two-time All-Star point guard Darius Garland, who’s dealing with a toe injury that limited him during last year’s postseason. Unsurprisingly, Garland will extend his absence to four games when the Cavaliers face the Detroit Pistons on Monday night.

The Cavaliers assigned Garland (toe) to the G League's Cleveland Charge on Monday.

Both the Cleveland Cavaliers and Detroit Pistons may be without some of their key players in Monday night's matchup.

Darius Garland says he has a return date in mind as the Cavaliers await their star guard’s long-awaited comeback.

Cavaliers fans have been closely tracking every update on Darius Garland’s recovery from toe surgery, with recent reports of the star guard participating in live reps during practice sparking speculation about a possible early return.

Garland underwent surgery in June to address a sprained left big toe sustained late last season and aggravated during the playoffs. Since then, he has resumed practicing with the team but has yet to appear in game action, missing all four of Cleveland’s preseason contests.

Fans fiercely trolled Darius Garland for claiming the Cavaliers would have won the championship if he had remained healthy.

The biggest question for the Cavaliers at the start of the season is how their rotation will look with new players, plus Darius Garland and Max Strus sidelined
